A percentage literacy rate in the upper nineties and free health care has contributed to creating an educated and healthy workforce in Seychelles.

English, French and Seychelles’ Creole are spoken almost universally, and significant immigrant communities make a wide range of other languages available in the islands.

Indeed, the constant flux of immigrants to Seychelles, initially from continental Africa, Europe and the Indian sub-continent, and later from China, have created an ethnically diverse, harmonious people, accustomed to meeting and working alongside people from places and backgrounds vastly different to their own.
